Put the files you want to load into their own directory and then point POI Loader to that directory. It will load all files within that directory. It won't allow you to select individual files.

Not sure what you mean

Try reading:

http://www.poi-factory.com/node/85

If you are having a problem finding the csv files from this website, make a folder called garmin or nuvi or whatever on your desktop. Then do a right click on the csv file on this website and Save As. Then on the left side of the window choose desktop and the folder you created.

Point the Poi Loader to that folder.

Let us know if you still need help.
